D'Angelo Russell 'Felt Like a Quarterback' During Two-Year Stint With Brooklyn Nets

Five years later, Russell is still reminiscing about his time in Brooklyn.

Years after the two found themselves dancing on the sidelines at the Barclays Center, former-Brooklyn Nets D'Angelo Russell and Theo Pinson sat down on Pinson's“It goes back to the group of guys we had. I always talk about that. That’s another reason I’m even here again," Russell said. “I just remember connecting with so many different dudes on that team. I felt like a quarterback and I had a relationship with every player on our team and then, it led to our success.

After recording the best season of his career, Russell was famously shipped to the Golden State Warriors in the sign-and-trade that landed Kevin Durant in Brooklyn, kicking off a new era. The trio of Durant, Kyrie Irving and James Harden fell well short of expectations, leading some to having fonder memories of Russell's "underdog" team in 2019 than the big three's.

While all speculation, the Nets' glaring need at guard compounded with Russell's evident love for Brooklyn may lead to general manager Sean Marks at least inquiring about his availability.
